...Until after .8 release of Xonotic! However, signups are still going on. I will announce the date of the tournament AFTER .8 releases. The new version is too close to have a tournament and I am afraid that .7 and .8 would intersect! Sorry everyone!

Hm, 2 more free agents could make a solid team, then we could have one or two more American teams join the competition. I'm going to persuade the smokebreak guys to join and another group of americans. I'm sure some of the (SMB) guys can join up.
